I am looking at buying new wheels to go with slightly thinner tires. I have 225/50z/15 Potenza' on the front and 245/50z Comp TA' on the rear. They are great, but a little wide for my hp output. Can someone tell me what size the stock wheels and tires were please. And any suggestions on my new sizes will be taken into account. Chances are what ever the board' consensus is, is what wil appear on my car. O, and I found a current edition of my rims Ronal Turbo R10's They are at http://www.ronalusa.com/wheels-2002/r10.html
Nice, huh?

OK, they are not for everone. I have something like them now except where the Ronal Turbo is {center of wheel} on this one, on my car it is inward. It'a almost like mine are on inside out.

I believe that the 15" rims came from the factory with 205/60-15's on all four corners. The rims were 15x6.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Damn it, Joes924Racer was right. The more I look at these wheels the less I like them. I went to http://www.ronalusa.com/cars.html and saw different cars with these wheels and most look awful! I like my inside out ones better. They are more of a finished smoothe rim with a red middle set in the back.

the wells.

OEM tire and wheel specs are in the 924.org technical section.
